The pressure switch should be installed vertically, with the water inlet at the bottom and the outlet at the top, to ensure proper air bleeding and sensor function. Securely mount the device to a stable surface using appropriate fasteners (not included).
2. Priključci za vodu
Connect the pump's discharge outlet to the inlet of the pressure switch. Connect the water supply line to the outlet of the pressure switch. Ensure all connections are watertight using thread sealant tape or appropriate gaskets. Avoid overtightening connections.

Uputstvo za upotrebu
The Karcher Electronic Pressure Switch is designed for automatic operation.
Automatski rad
Once installed and powered, the device will automatically switch the connected pump on when water demand is detected (e.g., opening a tap) and switch it off when water flow stops. The integrated pressure gauge provides a visual indication of the system pressure.
Zaštita od rada na suho
If the pump runs without water on the suction side, the dry-run protection feature will automatically shut off the pump to prevent damage. This is indicated by a specific light on the control panel.
